Welcome
Most people you'll talk with are associated with a specific yacht brokerage firm and have a vested interest in selling the boats they have in their inventory of listings. They are representing their employer and their sellers ... not you! They are many times not concerned with getting the best deal for you but only in turning over their inventory.
Our service is different as we have no listings and no inventory that we need to move but instead concentrate all of our efforts on finding exactly the yacht you have told us you're looking for and in the price range you have specified. This means a much higher probability of you getting precisely what you want as we are not limited to "our listings" like a normal seller might be.
I represent you, the buyer and have both the experience and the knowledge to not only find the yacht you have asked for but also to ask the hard questions and do the due diligence necessary with the seller and his agents to make certain that every detail is as represented. We also can assist in engaging your own surveyors, shipyards,etc.
This important preliminary investigation is done before we even show the boat to you as a possibility for your consideration. You do not want to be in the situation that I have seen all too often of finding out after the purchase that the beautiful yacht you just bought came loaded with a bunch of expensive, unexpected and hidden problems!
OK, so what kind of yacht can YCI find for me?
We like to say that if you'll just give us the information on what you're looking for then we can find it for you if such a yacht exists anywhere on the planet. We have access to not only the normal yachts for sale and brokerage listings but also important relationships with many marine lenders and private listings that are never publicly advertised and could never be located through normal channels.
We can find the yacht of your choice from medium to mega yachts and covering every manufacturer from Azimut to Westport - You tell us what you're looking for and we'll find it for you -- it's really that simple.The Mega Yacht market is very strong, and we can move quickly if needed!
How can you do all of this without charge?
answer- The yacht business is very standardized worldwide.
We certainly do not work for free, however you are not out of pocket any commissions on your end.
My relationship with you is similar to a "Buyers Agent" in a real estate transaction as I am legally committed to looking out for your interests and well being and avoiding the conflict of interest situation that always exists when the same person is representing both the buyer and seller.
Our fees are not paid by you, our client but out of the money the seller has already agreed to pay his broker for the sale. The brokers share the commissions. Again, very similar to real estate transactions.
There is never any charge to you for anything we do including our research and consulting and there is never any obligation for you to move forward on the purchase of any vessel we present to you.
It's really a very simple and straight-forward process. You tell YCI what you're looking for and YCI will work as hard as we can to find yachts that meet those specifications and then report our findings back to you so that you can decide if you have any interest in moving forward or not. You're totally in control, YCI does the "investigative work" and you are never under any obligation. We move at your pace.
